Here is a comparison every American golfer should run before booking. A single round on the Pebble Beach Golf Links runs around $695 in green fees — and to play it you generally need to stay at the resort, where rooms start well north of $1,000 a night. One round, one night: comfortably over $1,700.

A seven-night, multi-round tailor-made golf holiday in the Algarve starts from
The honest math
- Pebble Beach: ~$695 per round + $1,000+ per night.
- Algarve / Costa del Sol: a whole week of golf, stay and transfers from ~$350–$800 per person.
It is not close. Flights are the variable — but even adding a transatlantic fare, a European golf week routinely lands below a long weekend at a marquee US resort. You are quoted and billed in GBP; the dollar figures here are indicative.
